I know it seems a bit early to be thinking about putting together a Mom's or Dad's day present, but it will be here before you know it. Last year I decided to make my Mom an oldies music cd that she and Dad could play in their car. They're not computer savvy or really into listening to anything but talk radio these days but they used to really loved going out and dancing. I decided to go the Billboard website and look up what songs were the top ones during their twenties. I printed off a list and had them mark which ones they remembered. Rosemary Clooney was one of their favorites. By the time Mother's Day arrived, I had two oldies music cds burned for them to listen to in the car. This was like a walk down memory lane for them. It got them talking about where they used to go to dance and what musicians they liked best. Making them their own oldies music cd was really one of the best gifts I ever gave them.
